Just to make this clear to the non-Germans amongst my mutuals: there were not "10s of thousands" on the streets against in but 100s of thousands, probably around 1.4 million in total. The largest demonstrations since reunification.

"Trump is worse!" And then I'm blocked.

People get so cranky at Black folk for pointing out the irrefutable evidence that Biden's Covid policies got a lot of people long Covid, and caused a lot of other people to die of Covid unnecessarily.

You can get mad at me. You can yell "Trump is worse!" until your voice gets hoarse. I'm not talking about Trump. I'm talking about pandemic decisions made during this administration.

Y'all know I'm right.

@mekkaokereke The curse of a first-past-the-post voting system. It creates two adversarial camps and you have to choose one side. And how dare you criticize the "right" side because then you clearly must be the enemy!

REMEMBER THE CANT!

8 years ago, premiered on Syfy, quickly becoming the best show of the past 20 years

The Rocinante from The Expanse, the sickest ship in modern sci-fi, doing a bad ass high G turn to fire its railgun. Queen.

How do you feel about the upcoming show? You may boost when ready.

Is Trump ahead in the polls, because Biden is losing support amongst one of his key demographics: Black men? Or are the polls all a lie?

Trump ahead in polls?

Biden camp doesn't believe the polls?
https://www.axios.com/2024/05/14/biden-polls-denial-trump-2024-election

Either way, the most important thing to do, is to ignore, insult, argue with, and generally disrespect, Black men online! ๐Ÿคก Find a Black man, and yell "Trump is worse!" in his face as hard as you can! Swear at him, and threaten him with violence!

@mekkaokereke That's the thing: if White liberal America wants to keep a liberal America it needs to talk to White non-liberal America (their friends, families, co-workers etc) and convince them not to vote for Trump. Focusing on (and blaming) Black people is just absurd.

You can complain about onboarding and UX all day, but the one big sell of Mastodon for me is that itโ€™s not a big sell: it is non-commercial, non-profit, ad free and doesnโ€™t fck off your data to some marketing ahole.

Hey folks, when did you fall in love with laser swords, scoundrels, bounty hunters and the Force? Are you an Original Trilogy kid (incl. the Ewok movies), did you find your way to the GFFA in the Dark Times with the Expanded Universe, was Jar Jar your hero, or did Rey and Mando capture your heart?

Where are my mutuals on ? Here's a short Who-wise:

  • Favorite Classic Doctor is 7, the great Sylvester McCoy
  • Moffat Who is peak Who, both classic and new
  • Peter Capaldi was the most interesting new Doctor
  • Clara is my favorite companion of new Who, while Ace and Liz Shaw share the top spot in Classic Who
  • I'm SO GLAD that the Chibnall era is over
  • But I still love s11 with Demons Of The Punjab and It Takes You Away

Now it's your turn!

Just was reminded about this little fact that Steven Moffat has written stories for more Doctors than any other writer in history. And it's not a stretch to argue that he gave everyone of them their best episode as well.

So I'm a bit behind the new #DoctorWho and just watched #SpaceBabies. What do y'all think of it?

Gone (but not forgotten?)

While some science fiction imagines humanity alone in the universe, other stories imagine that life just like our own is plentiful outside our Solar System. One common thread in such stories is the idea of precursor civilisations - ancient races that lived, died and passed out of general knowledge long before humanity took to the stars.

Re (common) origin of life in the universe: there's a great kurgesagt video on that topic:

The implications are interesting. If this is all the case then life in the universe might share much more commonalities.
